DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH RELEASES ENG 101 RESULTS

By Oladapo Comfort 

The Department of English at Obafemi Awolowo University has released the results for ENG 101, a core course for Part One students. The results, which were made available on Friday, April 24, 2026, have also been pasted on the department’s notice board, displaying students’ names and matriculation numbers.

This mode of publication has drawn attention, as it has been a while since the department last released results in such a public manner. While some students welcomed the transparency, others expressed concerns over privacy and the emotional impact of public display.

In interviews conducted with some students, reactions to the results varied. A student, identified as SOJ, described the outcome as fair despite the difficulty of the exam: “Actually, the result is not that bad. Though the questions we did were out of the box, many did well.”

However, not all responses were positive. Another student, identified as Sewa, expressed deep dissatisfaction with both the result and the method of publication: “I feel so terrible and bad. After my countless overnight reading, I feel cheated. They still went ahead to paste it and added names and matric numbers. The Lord will judge you guys.”

Another student named Hassan Abdulsalam expressed how he felt about the result. "The result is not actually impressive, but I thank God. it is not what I prayed for, but at least God plan is the best.

I am so amazed because what my course mate has been telling me so far about the result is that most people failed. 

Most of the coursemate texted me on the same day they checked it that the result is bad. But Alhamdullillah"


ENG 101 is a foundational course that introduces students to key aspects of English studies, and its results are often seen as an early indicator of academic performance. 


Students are now expected to review their results carefully and take necessary steps where clarification or academic support is needed.

Afeez: I spent all my educational life up to this moment in Ife. I attended Pearl Preparatory School while in nursery class. I proceeded to Faith Standard Schools for my primary and secondary education. I finished secondary school in 2019, applied for English language here in OAU the same year and I got admitted a few months after. NCB: So you mean to type that English was your first choice. Afeez: Yes. I chose English myself. Actually, when I was in SSS 3, I was indecisive on whether I should pursue a degree in Law or English. Later, I got to find out Law wasn't accredited as a programme in OAU that year and since a passionate love fo...

"I WOULD HATE TO MAKE PROMISES BECAUSE THEN I WOULD BE CHALLENGED TO PERFORM ABOVE THEM." - FRANCIS OHACHO, PRESIDENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH, OAU.

By Mercy Ojegbola  NCB: Can we meet you? Francis: I am Francis Fortunatus Ohacho, popularly known as Sael. A part four student in the Department of English, Obafemi Awolowo University, I am the incumbent president of the department's students body. NCB: What motivated you to run for the position of President? Francis: I would like to use cliché pumped up phrases like I'm led by my passion for service and all.  People often say they knew I was going for presidency from part one due to my proactiveness, but really I didn't have the Presidency in mind till late second semester of part two.  And that's because I have only wanted to support from the sides, being a significant catalyst for development wherever I am. So I've had roles like Vice President and Fin Sec in mind, but not president. I didn't think I had it. My motivation, in summary, would be the realisation of how efficient I can be to an administration. And I don't doubt it, that with the help of the t...
